Williston, N.D.

Residents of the Williston School District will vote next month on whether to approve up to $55 million in bonding for a new middle school and a new elementary school.

The new buildings would be aimed at dealing with rapid growth in the district in the heart of the booming western North Dakota oil patch. Some of the money would go toward renovating and repairing existing schools, including the high school.
